“Kormin's win” by Leon Moore

Submitted to Contest #72

Humans themselves have never evolved but, the world they live in has never stopped changing. Astronomers and scientists alike were correct in their assessments, the sun had depleted half of its energy — earth was now changing, the Antarctica and arctic regions had spread, covering at least fifty-percent of the planet in glaciers, hundreds of millions of people were killed in the process. New technologies were being thought upon in ways on how the people of earth could survive, but that very thought had changed the moods of people. Widespread...

“Lily-white” by Leon Moore

Submitted to Contest #70

No matter where I step foot in this town my face is recognizable. I'm the one they say that's riddled with guilt. It's always the same cliche, if only they were there, they'd known what'd happened. Even their accusatory eyes, scorning me, judging me, giving the once over. For my sanity, I have to have thick skin, which is hard going as the mental affliction they inflict is slowly taking its toll. It's even gotten to the point that when I see people talk, I have misconceptions that it's me they're conversing about. That poor girl has g...

These shoes were repaired by my own hands, I have to thank my late grandpa for teaching me how.

People of today didn’t want their shoes repaired, they want new, the frill of ...

In all the years had I come here, had I seen the sun rise so spectacularly like this. It’s as if the rays of golden light themselves would shine happiness on us. She was sitting beside me, holding me tight as we were high up in the sky, on the summit where we could see the land below us for miles and miles. “Don’t you ever get fed-up of coming up here?” Asked Rachelle. “Not really because this is the only place where I can find true meaning and enlightenment,” I replied. She gave me a little smile and t...

“Citizens Death” by Leon Moore

Submitted to Contest #68

She trembled uncontrollably as he pushed the muzzle into her forehead. "Nobody moves or makes a sound, any heroics bullets will start flying. As you can probably tell, this is a bank heist. Cooperate and I’ll spare you all your lives." "Please don't kill me, I'll take you to the vault right now." "Shut it. I decide when we go," he replied, as he jared her head back with the barrel. The hostages looked on in slouched postures, with furrowed brows and gaping mouths, wondering if the gun’s magazine was loaded or not? For the bank manager’s ...

Lilly needed more medicine, in fact a better medicine that could save her dying mother, no twelve-year-old girl should watch cancer slowly take a woman from this earth.
